L'Épée de Cristal

A five-issue fantasy series from French publisher Vents d'Ouest, L'Épée de Cristal ran from 1989 to 1994, blending epic quest themes with the detailed, atmospheric art style emblematic of European bande dessinée of the era. Though brief, it remains a notable entry in the publisher's catalog for its concise, self-contained storytelling and its contribution to the sword-and-sorcery genre in French comics.
